Title:
VPN shared PSK shown in plaintext
Status in OpenStack Dashboard (Horizon):
New
Status in OpenStack Security Advisory:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
In the neutron VPN details and form,
https://github.com/openstack/horizon/blob/master/openstack_dashboard/dashboards/project/vpn/templates/vpn/_ipsecsiteconnection_details.html#L43
and
https://github.com/openstack/horizon/blob/master/openstack_dashboard/dashboards/project/vpn/forms.py#L249
don't offer the option of hiding the string. Typically sensitive
information like passwords is hidden by default, requiring the user to
explicitly choose to make it visible by clicking an icon (like the eye
icon).
Filing this as a security bug out of an overabundance of caution;
while it is related to security it doesn't describe a vulnerability
that can be exploited by means other than shoulder surfing.
